Premium Webhost Site Tool Box

This page was set up as a toolbox for Web programmers and or for those that need to have information about modules installed on the servers and general information about specific programming elements.

Note that the number after the dash is the version we have installed.

 
  • CGI.pm-2.42
     
  • DBI-0.93
     
  • GD-1.18
     
  • HTML-Parser-2.18
     
  • MD5-1.7
     
  • MIME-Base64-2.05

    The path to perl on the server is /usr/bin/perl, this means that the top line of your perl/cgi scripts should be #!/usr/bin/perl (don't put a trailing / at the end of perl)

    The path to sendmail is /usr/sbin/sendmail

    The absolute path is /home/username (replace with your username)

    Make Files Executable to Run them: All scripts must have executable permissions to run. To set a file as executable using FTP Pro, you go to the directory containing that file, click on the file to highlight it, then click the right mouse button. Select the chmod (UNIX) option. A box will appear asking for owner, group, and other permissions. Under each is read, write, execute. You should select all 3 under owner, read and execute under group and other. This makes it executable which is what your cgi's require.
